Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 2, February 2026.Two distinct lineages of L. invasa and the dominant endosymbiont, Rickettsia, was identified, followed by an analysis of its infection density across various developmental stages and tissues of L. invasa. Furthermore, two distinct strains of the Rickettsia endosymbiont were detected, and the phylogenetic relationships between these strains and their L.

Melting curve analysis to differentiate Rickettsia spp. and Rickettsia felis
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2021 Abstract Rickettsiosis, caused by Rickettsia species, is one of the old arthropod-borne illness that commonly found in humans and animals. One of the barriers to rickettsiosis control is the intricacy and time-consuming nature of rickettsiosis laboratory diagnosis.

Public Health Threat of New, Reemerging, and Neglected Zoonoses in the Industrialized World [PDF]
, 2010 Microbiologic infections acquired from animals, known as zoonoses, pose a risk to public health. An estimated 60% of emerging human pathogens are zoonotic. Of these pathogens, >71% have wildlife origins.

Zoonotic Disease Transmission May Be Linked to Host Co‐Occurrence Network Topology
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, Volume 1554, Issue 1, Page 110-120, December 2025.A global analysis of zoonotic host co‐occurrence networks identified 22 networks from five continents (A) and 87 hosts from 16 orders of mostly birds but also mammals (B) as having a high potential for disease transmission. ABSTRACT Most human pathogens are zoonotic, transmitted from vertebrate hosts to humans.
